Within a possible ecclesiastical enclosure (SL036-033002-), c. 300m ENE of Killure, and adjacent to a church (SL036-033003-). The mound indicated on the 1914 OS 6-inch map, and on which the remains of the church are located, is likely to consist of fallen rubble from the church. There are no visible remains of the children's burial ground. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Sligo' compiled by Ursula Egan, Elizabeth Byrne, Mary Sleeman with Sheila Ronan and Connie Murphy (Dublin Stationery Office, 2005). Date of upload: 18 January 2008

In undulating pasture, on the summit of a low rise c. 1km N of Aclare. An arc (C 66m) of an earthen field boundary NW-SE, surrounding the remains of a church (SL036-033003-), may follow the line of an ecclesiastical enclosure. The site of a graveyard (SL037-021---) lies immediately to the E.

Surviving sections of walling stand to c. 0.7m high but no doorway or window features are evident. The mound, which is indicated on the 1914 OS 6-inch map, is likely to be made up of rubble fallen from the church. Recorded in 1836 as the 'remains of an old nunnery' (OSNB vol. 2, 164), but no such foundation is listed by Gwynn and Hadcock (1970). The site of a graveyard (SL037-021----) lies immediately to the E. No remains are evident of the 'Children's Burial Ground' (SL036-033001-) marked at this location on the 1914 OS 6-inch map.

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
